Blockchain and Insurance - from Concept to Reality

Paolo is not the only one getting excited about the possibilities for Blockchain to change the way we transact insurance. Having spent the last week getting up to speed, its clear that the potential is vast, but how and where it plays remains uncertain.

My sense is that the next step lies with the industry itself. It needs to establish some level of consensus about where the opportunity lies, how to kick things off and who wants to get involved. We'll know much more by the end of 2016.

the number of events and articles on blockchain in insurance is growing almost as rapidly as Adele’s album sales. It’s not, on the whole, insurance technology providers who are driving this, but companies who have been at the heart of the blockchain debate in FinTech and other industries, as well as some of the more cutting-edge InsTech thinkers.
